Do you just queue messages from source addresses, so that you don't generate more than one echo in a minute, or do you throw away every message from that source address which was generated less than one minute ago?
please, see the other answer in this thread.
Also, how do you handle echoes of echoes? For example, if I forged e-mail as being from echo@psi.net and addressed that to echo@rohrbach.de (or whatever), would this generate an endless loop?
X-Loop:
What if I put "echo@psi.net,echo@psi.net" as the return address? Would you send back two copies?
No.
Just curious. Thanks!
